I've searched pretty much everywhere and I still can't get my simple
template tag working.
It's supposed to simply return a list of strings which I can output in
a template for loop. Currently it takes no parameters but eventually
I'd like to pass it a string to format the URL as well however it
doesn't seem to be rendering. Here's the tag code:
import datetime
from django.template import Library, Node
register = Library()
class DaysListNode(Node):
def render(self, context):
today = datetime.date.today()
days_list = []
for i in range(7):
day_delta = datetime.timedelta(days=i)
the_date = today + day_delta
# Locale's abbreviated weekday name.
day_name = the_date.strftime("%a")
# Day of the month as a decimal number [01,31]
day_num = the_date.strftime("%d").lstrip("0")
days_list.insert(i, day_name + '<br />' + day_num)
context['days_list'] = days_list
return ''
def calendar_days(parser, token):
return DaysListNode()
register.tag('calendar_days', calendar_days)
And here's the way I'm calling it in the template:
{% load calendar_days %}
... lots of XHTML
<ul class="date">
{% for day in calendar_days.days_list %}
<li class="{% if forloop.first %}active{% endif %}"><a href="#">
{{ day }}</a></li>
{% endfor %}
</ul>
It doesn't seem to work if I put {% for day in calendar_days %} or {%
for day in days_list %} either.
Any help would be appreciated,
Thanks
